Subject: Emission Recall DETROIT™ DD13®, DD15®, DD16® Soot Sensor
Installation and Software Reprogramming
Models Affected: DD13, DD15, DD16 (471.928, 472.910, 472.912, 473.910)
General Information
Daimler Trucks
North America LLC, on behalf of its Detroit Powertrain Division, is initiating Emission Recall D22R6
to modify the vehicles mentioned above.
Certain Detroit DD13®, DD15®, and DD16® engines were built without soot sensors due to global component
shortages and supply chain issues. The majority of these vehicles will require installation of a new soot sensor. All
of these vehicles will require reprogramming to a minimum of the ACM, MCM, CPC and TCM software versions
and fuel map versions listed below:
For DD15 w/ GATS 2.0:
ACM Software Version 10.52.1.0 ZGS 001
MCM Software Version 19.2.1.4 ZGS 001
CPC Software Version R21.42.00.00A
TCM (if applicable): Software Version NAMT201403
For DD13, DD15, DD16 w/ 1-Box Aftertreatment
ACM Software Version 7.61.1.0 ZGS 003
MCM Software Version:
o DD13: 14.3.1.1 ZGS 001
DD15: 6.9.0.2 ZGS 002
DD16: 6.9.0.2 ZGS 003
CPC Software Version:
o CPC501T R20.11.00.00A or R20.31.00.00A
o CPC04T R44_00_000A
TCM (if applicable):Software Version NAMT201403
Updated programming is available for DD13®, DD15®, and DD16® powered vehicles manufactured between June
2021 and December 2021. These DD13®, DD15®, and DD16® powered vehicles will need to have the ACM
reprogrammed, at minimum.
The California Air Resource Board (CARB) and the Environment Protection Agency (EPA) regulations require that
software and fuel maps meet certification criteria. Reprogramming the ACM corrects the fuel maps to new certified
versions, once a new soot sensor is installed.
There are approximately 38,376 engines affected by this Emission Recall.
Note that some engines are already reprogrammed and have had soot sensor installed. These engines are
excluded from this Emission Recall. In addition, the currently available software levels may be higher than the
minimum levels shown above.
IMPORTANT:
DPF failures and related fault codes, before and after Recall completion, are not caused by missing or failed soot
sensors and cannot be filed under D22R6 Emission Recall. Normal in Warranty procedures apply.
